Abstract :
Next generation wireless communication system may be near filed magnetic induction Communication (NFMIC) which has major application in Body Area Network (BAN). Communication takes place in and around the body is called BAN. This Paper describes the working principle, power equation, its significance and application in NFMIC. It is compared with the other short range wireless technology such as Bluetooth, WLAN, UWB, ZigBee and RFID inside a BAN. This provides information how NFMIC is going to be next generation wireless communication.
